Dear Yuletide Author [2014 edition]...

[foxxcub]

Greetings, Yuletide writer! I am SUPER STOKED to have you writing for me, and while I capslock a lot in a dramatic fashion, I promise I'm very easy to please!


1. The Eagle | The Eagle of the Ninth (2011) (Marcus/Esca)

There aren't enough AUs in this fandom, especially stripper AUs (HELLO, have you seen Magic Mike, I MEAN REALLY). Anything where Marcus and Esca are rivals would be amazing, and if you're feeling generous I'd even beg for a college frat boy AU (RIVAL FRATS WHERE EACH HAS TO DEFEND THEIR HONOR omg why aren't more of theeeeese sob). I'm also a huge fan of porn...lots of porn. Marcus being dumb and not knowing what he wants. Esca being smart and knowing how to give it to him. I don't necessarily need one or the other topping, just Esca being in control (that being said, Esca being a dominant bottom is GLORIOUS AND WONDERFUL). Voyeurism is A+++++. I'm not squeamish about violence if you want to keep them in canon, but I definitely need a happy ending. No unrequited stuff or character deaths, please!


2. Captive Prince - C.S. Pacat (Laurent/Damen)

If you're like me, you've chewed both your arms off waiting for the third book to come out. Since I'm desperate for anything Laurent/Damen-related, I will take virtually ANYTHING about these two. You can do a quick-and-dirty PWP, or a lovely little vignette where Laurent shows ALL THE EMOTIONS. Or you can do a what-if scenario, which are always great. I especially love the What-If-Auguste-Had-Lived scenarios, heart-breaking as they are. Porn or no porn, I only ask that you give me a great Laurent POV, because Laurent ;____;<333333.


3. The Baby-Sitters Club - Ann M. Martin (Byron Pike/Jeff Schafer)

Um, if you don't know me at all, you should prooooooobably understand that I am obsessed with high school fics. Like, a lot. A LOT, a lot. Hence my slight fixation on this pairing and my love for Byron Pike. I love the triplet dynamic, and how Byron is the ~smart~ one of the bunch, the romantic one. Byron's POV is my favorite; him struggling to figure himself out, and not just his sexuality. First-time fic is like CATNIP for me, so naturally I love virgin/experienced character pairings. Not saying Jeff has to be a man-whore, but I definitely like him with the upper hand in terms of sexual experience. And you don't necessarily have to set it in high school! College settings are perfectly acceptable! Just as long as there's tons of pining and misunderstandings and sweetness and sexiness and angst and boys being stupid, I will LOVE YOU FOREVER, AUTHOR.


Whatever you choose to create, THANK YOU SO MUCH IN ADVANCE!! ♥

Anon because Yuletide

[(Anonymous)]

Hi there, I was reading the Yuletide Letters post and clicked through to you because of 'Babysitters Club'. I ADORED those books when I was younger. I even subscribed to the book club where you got three new ones in the post every month... Anyway, I do remember Byron and Jeff vaguely (I was much more focussed on the Stacey/Claudia feelz at the time), but I can't remember Byron getting a POV - was that the later books? Could you suggest, say, three or four books to re-read to catch up the main Byron and/or Jeff stuff? And yes, I do mean with a view to maybe trying to write it, although no promises! Or is Byron and Jeff a fanon/headcanon thing that already exists more than a canon thing? (Like Sid/Andy in Toy Story fandom, for example, which incidentally i think is reason number 803 why fandom is amazing)

Yes, both Byron and Jeff got POVs in the Super Specials, I believe! And the ENTIRE reason I am into this pairing is due to this fic (which, incidentally, was written for Yuletide): http://archiveofourown.org/works/139991/chapters/201153

(There are a handful of other Byron/Jeff fics on AO3, but nothing compares to that fic right there.)
